Profile Summary: always_confused

Meet always_confused, the enigmatic FIDE Master whose chess journey is as thrilling as a rollercoaster ride through a maze blindfolded. Despite what their username might suggest, always_confused is anything but lost on the board — boasting a peak blitz rating of 2505 in 2024, a testament to their sharp tactical awareness and high-stakes gameplay.

With a blitz career spanning hundreds of games, always_confused holds an impressive total of 264 wins out of 505 games played with their signature mysterious opening, affectionately called “Top Secret,” yielding a win rate north of 52%. This player’s rapid chess debut was nothing short of flawless with a perfect 100% win rate from their very first game, proving they can kick-start a match with incredible momentum.

Their style? Think of a patient strategist who thrives in long, grueling endgames—nearly 86% of their games go into the late stages where they average over 76 moves per win, proving endurance is their middle name. Their psychological game? Impeccable. They bounce back with a staggering nearly 90% comeback rate after falling behind and never lose “one-sidedly,” showing resilience that can frustrate even the strongest opponents.

Outside the numbers, always_confused battles an adorable paradox of a low tilt factor (only 7) yet a username that hints at the constant hilarity of second-guessing their brilliant moves mid-match. Their fan club can confirm: when this FM says "I’m confused," it probably means they’re two moves ahead, plotting the next brilliant trap.

Whether it's a blitz brawl or a rapid showdown, always_confused shows they’ve mastered the art of controlled chaos on the squares. Opponents beware — behind that puzzled online alias lies a grandmaster of confusion and calculated chaos!
